BRING A MEDIEVAL ASSEMBLY TO YOUR SCHOOL:

Give your students a once-in-a lifetime experience through a Medieval Assembly at your school!

Let’s face it! History can be dry for some students! But it doesn’t have to be that way!

The Knights At School assemblies bring the Middle Ages to life for your students, helping them to learn while having fun! We will send to your school our resident knight, Sir O’Keefe, to educate and mesmerize students of grades up to 8th grade.

Your knight, Sir O’Keefe, brings his deep knowledge of the Middle Ages along with his suit of plate armor and a collection of medieval weapons to share with your students. Through humor, audio-visual elements, and hands-on interaction, Sir O’Keefe shares the wonders (and the grim realities) of life in Middle Ages.

THE MEDIEVAL HISTORY ASSEMBLY!

In the Medieval History Assembly, The Knight brings a wide array of armor, helmets, and weapons to share with students while he explains the history of these items and how they shaped the Middle Ages. He also allows selected students to try on helmets, handle (safe) weapons, and even test one or two weapons on the Knight! This is a highly interactive event, and students are encouraged, nay, required to ask and answer a great many questions! Students are always amazed to learn what it was really like to live in the Middle Ages. Learn more!

CHARACTER AND CHIVALRY!

Written over 1000 years, the Code of Chivalry is a great way to tie historical learning to modern character development! Your assembly will highlight qualities of good character in an entirely new way…through the ancient knightly rules of Chivalry. Chivalry is explained, and students are shown how the rules of Chivalry had a great effect on the life of a knight. Learn more!

Who is The Knight?

Knights at School is presented by Kyle O’Keefe, who has had the luxury of walking among the some of the great castles and medieval cities of the world, dining in old great halls, and exploring the dark dungeons beneath. Alas, Kyle  is not a real knight but happens to be descended distantly from knights and royalty as well, being related in some fashion to King John O’Keefe, one of the “petty” kings of early Irish history.
